Chlamydia is a common and curable bacterial infection of:the dickthe buttholethe lining of the eyelid and less commonly, the throat.

The good news is that half of all men who get chlamydia do not experience any symptoms at all (symptoms usually show up within three weeks).

These symptoms are a lot like those of gonorrhea, and the two infections often get confused.
